Re: saturday. 8 pm. a dong.

random fact: morty bears a tattoo wrapping around his wrist of the "Dance of Death" from Bergman's The Seventh Seal--the exact tattoo that all the members and one roadie of the hardcore/punk band Catharsis got on their Brazil tour years back. conclusion: morty really liked Catharsis.
